Tree is teaming with Trees for Kids and the Greater
Des Moines Botanical Garden to conduct workshops to
help educators learn how to develop a school site outdoor project to implement
a STEM based approach to your curriculum. We will introduce a variety of
teaching methods and materials (including Project Learning Tree)that can
be used to develop a project based learning unit to include: tree planting,
care and maintenance on or near your school site. Teaching partners/groups
are encouraged to facilitate planning/implementation of projects. This
training is an opportunity to fulfill your Trees for Kids grant requirements.
